Sunny presents Civil Rights and Mental Illness posted at Morning Globe, saying, “Beginning with the Gun Control Act of 1968 there has been a movement to eliminate gun ownership rights among the mentally ill. The tragedy of Virginia Tech helped propel that movement forward, and a bill that will enforce GCA68′s provisions against mental illness has passed the House and moved on to the Senate. While it is noble to keep guns out of the hands of those who pose an imminent threat to themselves and others, stripping a group of individuals of their guaranteed civil rights should always come under extreme scrutiny. This bill needs strong definitions to protect the rights of a group of individuals who daily face serious social prejudices.”
